Yes, usually it is 24-48hrs of constantly wearing them. Eventually you would want to take them out every night and clean them every night. In the morning you would put them back in and at night take them out again. Hope that helps!
yes. absolutely! Leaving your dentures in for too long without giving your tissues a break will cause you to have fungal and bacterial infections and even sores. It is healthy to remove them at night for cleaning and to give the tissues a break to "breath."
The answer is dentist and procedure specific. If the doctor said you could, you can. If they said you cant, you should have a follow up appointment scheduled. My best advice is to call the office that delivered the prosthesis.
